Democrat Congressman Gregory Meeks, chairman of the U.S. House Foreign Affairs Committee, and Michael McCaul, a leading Republican member of the same committee, are concerned about the backsliding democracy in Georgia.

They mention this in a letter sent to "Voice of America".
 
"In the run-up to this weekend's municipal elections, we remain concerned about Georgia's continuing backsliding democracy, political polarization, and reports of pre-election violence.

For Georgia to meet the democratic standards of NATO, the OSCE, and the European Union, all parties must act in accordance with democratic values ​​in this month's elections. We will observe the elections closely.
 
We are waiting for the findings of the OSCE monitoring mission and we remain committed to participatory democracy in Georgia, even beyond the election day," the congressmen said.
